I have come a long way from the person I used to be. I loved pleasing people and I always wanted to be in people's good books. What I realize now is that, I was deceiving myself, the people I was pleasing and most importantly, I was not allowing God to define me. I don't want to be the kind of person who lives through life. I want to enjoy every bit of it while working the purpose that God gave me. I would like to travel the world and see all of God's wonderful creation. I would like to enjoy the simplicity of life while impacting others for generations to come. It has and still is a journey of opening up to the person I really am. In the midst of this, I thank Jesus Christ for sticking by me all this time. I have chosen to live fully in the person God created me to be and I know that eventually everything else will align. So here's to speaking out, living fully and being/becoming the best version God created me to be. I know that this will come with many chan...

Image source: Overcomer movie Facebook page Director: Alex Kendrick Producer: Stephen Kendrick Music composed by: Paul Mills Screenplay: Alex Kendrick, Stephen Kendrick Website: https://www.overcomermovie.com/   Other Kendrick brothers movies:  Flywheel, Facing the Giants, Fireproof, Courageous,War Room   This movie begins with a high school basketball game where one team gets so close to winning, but time runs out. What however stands out for me is how the coach (Alex Kendrick) encourages his team who lost by 3 points only. He doesn't focus on the loss but on the opportunity that lay ahead of becoming better next time.  In another scene, the principal (Priscilla Shirer) of the high school he coaches, requests him to begin coaching cross country. The coach hates cross country and he is at first resistant but soon agrees because the number of coaches in that school had reduced greatly.  On the first day of cross country tryou...

How many of you at any one point in your life have you been restless? I have and I always say to people, it is not an enjoyable state to be in. More so, if you have already known and tasted REST. When we are tired, we rest. When a brother or sister in Christ goes to be with the Lord, we say, may they rest in peace. This means therefore that REST must be a very important element of a person’s life. You see, when you are restless, do you realise that your mind, body and soul cannot function normally? My mind will feel overweighed and my body will suddenly feel heavy and my soul will be “all over the place”.    Someone might ask, how then do we get to a position of restlessness? Before we answer that, we must remember that along with restlessness, comes anxiety. We become anxious when we feel as though we can’t control what is happening around us. And this should be the case. We don’t have the ability to control what is happening around us – God does. In 2 nd Chro...

Fun "Fact" Question: What was Ruth before he met Boaz? Answer: Ruthless 😂😂😂 Today I want to talk about what we should do when we don't believe who God says we are. I have found myself in this situation where I know who God says I am, I even declare it for myself but it is hard to believe sometimes.This led me to where all questions lead me, to my knees and I asked God how I could continually believe His words of truth about me. It took me to certain bits of God's Word. In the book of Joshua 1:8 the Bible says " Keep this Book of the Law always on your lips; meditate on it day and night, so that you may...
